It's becoming more and more important in economic life nowadays, Although in China we can find some regulations about the right of privacy in Constitution, The General Rules of Civil Laws, Lawyer Law till today there are no any law that states this concept "the right of privacy" definitely. The protection towards this kind of right is not clear and we usually write the right of privacy into the right of reputation. In terms of legal principle, the formation of the injury to the right of privacy is different from the formation of the injury to the right of reputation. Only in the case that the disposing person spreads false information which does harm to the reputation of the injured, the injury to the reputation of the injured can be formed, while revealing and spreading other person's privacy (although are usually real) maybe form the injury to the right of privacy, but can't form an injury to the right of reputation.
